I found a lump on my dogs back, its near his butt on the right side, above his hip.

He's only 1 year old, and I don't remember feeling anything there before. Its about the size of a half dollar, and at that size I think I would have noticed if its been there for a while. Its under the skin and does not feel very hard but not like liquid either.

He has not had any shots lately, but he does rough-house with some other dogs around the neighborhood. I actually noticed it after he was playing with my neighbors Chihuahua.

He shows no sign of pain, but I am worried. Any advice or experience with this would be great. Thanks in advance.
